vb_dropdowns not working (vb-html question)

[sabret00the]

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="border-bottom-width:-1px">

		<td class="tcat" id="displyoptions" nowrap="nowrap"><a href="#goto_displyoptions">Display Options</a> <script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("displyoptions"); </script></td>
		<if condition="$show['catsearch']">
			<td class="tcat" id="catsearch" nowrap="nowrap"><a href="#goto_catsearch">Search Category</a> <script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("catsearch"); </script></td>
